Project Overview

The Brihaspati Infotech joined hands with a popular photo printing business in Europe. Their website’s outdated design and functionalities were impacting lead conversion. The client wanted a user-friendly platform that enables Dutch shoppers to personalize their drapes, blinds, wallpapers, and more.

We suggested a new Shopify website with custom API integrations during the consultation. We worked through multiple challenges, including conceptualizing a modern design that resonates with their evolving target audiences.

The final product was a visually stunning and intuitive Shopify website. While raving customer reviews pour in, the company is emerging as a go-to photo studio for homemakers, offices, and industrial clients.

Action Plan

We worked hand-in-hand with our clients to understand their unique business goals and target audiences. Our agile Shopify development team divided the plan into two.

Phase 1 focused on creating a new Shopify website as their HTML website was not profitable.

Phase 2 involved custom Adobe Stock API integration for expanding the product catalog.

The development plan included important elements:

Shopify Theme Development

Ecommerce Store Setup

Custom integration of “Adobe Stock API”

Our cohesive approach pushed more customer photo printing orders for the company. Let’s delve deeper into the specifics of each section.
